I have tried many times to contact someone at this church concerning the cemetery there. However phone calls are not answered nor is any snail mail.
In late October of 1795 there was a ferry boat which capsized off Ryer's Ferry Landing (near the church) and eight people drowned.
I am wondering if there is some kind soul who lives near the church who might stop by and ask them two questions;
1) Is there a mass grave in the churchyard for the eight victims?
2) Are there individual graves for any or all of the victims, Moses Tucker, William Hutchins, Simeon Day, Thomas Lane, Sarah Parker, John Hole, Thomas Shaw (a negro man), and a stranger?
